Governor Kathy Hochul0:05signed an executive order on July 14th0:07imposing a one-year moratorium on new0:09hyperscale data center construction. The0:11move comes amid growing concerns over0:13secrecy, surging utility bills, and0:16water consumption with environmental0:18advocate Erin Brockovich now warning the0:20industry has been operating behind0:21closed doors. The one-year pause makes0:23New York the first state to enact a0:25statewide ban on new data center0:27construction. Critics argue the0:29facilities consume enormous amounts of0:31electricity and water while providing0:33relatively few local jobs once built.0:35Supporters say they are critical0:37infrastructure for the artificial0:38intelligence industry. The executive0:40order halts approvals for large-scale0:42facilities while the state conducts an0:44environmental review. It does not affect0:46data centers already under construction0:48or smaller server facilities.0:50Environmental advocate Erin Brockovich0:51appeared on CBS News this week warning0:54that data center developers have0:55scheduled public meetings when residents0:57are at work minimizing community input.1:00She called the level of secrecy rare in1:01her three decades of environmental1:03advocacy. Brockovich has created a1:05national map tracking data center1:07proposals in every state. She says1:09concerns about the industry are1:10bipartisan and consistent across the1:12country, something she describes as1:14extremely unusual in her 30-year career.1:17Residents from rural communities to1:19suburban neighborhoods report the same1:20pattern: higher electric and water1:22bills, noise pollution, and little say1:24in the process. Brockovich cited one1:26projected data center that would consume1:287 million gallons of water per day. That1:31is enough to supply thousands of1:33households. The figure has become a1:34rallying point for opponents who1:36question whether the benefits of AI1:38infrastructure outweigh the costs to1:40local communities. The political stakes1:42are high. Former President Donald Trump1:44called on Governor Hochul to reverse the1:46order warning states not to regulate the1:48AI industry. Hochul faces a re-election1:50campaign this year and her Republican1:52opponent opposes the statewide1:53moratorium setting up a key battle over1:55the future of data center regulation in1:57New York. The one-year pause takes1:59effect immediately. The state will use2:01that time to study the environmental and2:03economic impact of the industry before2:05deciding whether to extend, modify, or2:07lift the ban.記事を読むストーリーの時系列HeyDexショート動画 ↗
